How to remove stock Evo X pedal covers?

Hey all,

I tried searching and found some threads about Evo X pedal installs, but none of them mention how to remove the stock pedal covers. Anyone know how to do this?

I looked at them and didn't find any sort of nuts or bolts. As far as I could tell, they may just slip on and are attached with tape or glue. I'd just pull them off, but don't want to break anything in case I'm wrong. Pedals being kinda important and all that.

Thanks!

All they are are rubber. They are not bolted or glued or anything. Just feel around the back and start gently bending the rubber over the metal pedal. You'll see what I mean. They can be a PITA to get back on, but I managed okay. I took mine off to clean the salt off from last winter.

Just an update: It's really easy peeling them off. Takes about a minute to remove all three.

I learned this because I accidentally kicked off my gas pedal and had to put it back on. Fairly easy!
